Abstract
We show that the theory of algebraically closed fields with multiplicative circular orders has a model companion . Using number-theoretic results on character sums over finite fields, we show that if is an algebraic closure of a finite field, and is any translation-invariant circular order on the multiplicative group , then is a model of . Our results can be regarded as analogues of Ax's results in [1] which utilize counting points over finite fields.

entirely rewritten, 25 pages, a number of results in the earlier versions removed (results about acl-completeness now incorporated into the more general framework of interpolative fusions, decidability results will be presented in a future paper)
